ONCE I WAS BLIND – Saturday December 24th
2016
Memorise: He answered and
said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas
I was blind, now I see. John 9:25
Read: John 9:1-7 (KJV)
1 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from
his birth.
2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin,
this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his
parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is
day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6 When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made
clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,
7 And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which
is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came
seeing.
Bible in one year: Leviticus
22:17-24:16, Psalms 133-134
MESSAGE
There is a category of people that God is
counting on to spread the Gospel to the uttermost parts of the world. Open heavens
devotional. We can see how powerful the testimony of a witness could be in our
Bible reading today. In Matthew 5:14, Jesus declared all followers of
Jesus as the light of the world and He went further in Mathew 5:16 to say:
“Let your light so shine before
men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in
heaven.”
We
are therefore called to be witnesses to the Power of God in our lives, sharing
the testimony of His saving Power, Goodness, Mercy, Faithfulness, Love,
Blessing, and the Miracles with the people of the world. 1st John 1:5 says:
“This then is the message which
we have heard of him, and declared unto you, that God is light, and in him is
no darkness at all.”
Many
perpetually live in darkness without any hope of deliverance; many are in
bondage to sin, sickness, poverty, and lustful desires. God is counting on you
to share the testimony of your salvation, healing, deliverance, and victory
over demonic powers with somebody today. Open Heavens Saturday 24 December 2016:-
Once I was blind. As you begin to share your experience from today, God will
turn you to a mighty beam of light that will shine into the kingdom of darkness
to liberate souls that are in bondage in the mighty Name of Jesus.
Testifying
to the Glory of God is not only beneficial to others; it also provides an
opportunity to destroy the stronghold of the devil in your life. Revelation
12:11 says:
“And the y overcame him by the
blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony.”
One
sure way of repelling those who want to drag you into sin is by confronting
them with the light of the Gospel. Also, when light shines in a dark
environment, all secret activities will be exposed. Do you know that it is
possible for you to know the secret thoughts and plans of your enemies before
their implementation? To do this, let the light of God’s Word shine in your
heart and be full of the Holy Spirit. There is hardly and significant thing
that takes place on earth without God first revealing it to one of His
confidants (Psalms
25:14). In addition, when light comes, it propels you into action.
Not many people want to perform brain tasking assignments when it is dark. If
you allow the light of Jesus to shine in your heart, you will be supernaturally
propelled to pick up your lost destiny and fulfil it. So, arise and shine, let
your light shine bright in the dark places of the earth, share your testimony,
let the whole world see what the Lord has done for you.
Prayer Point
Father, please give me a
voice; let the whole world hear my testimony very soon.
